Heart Monitor

Recently, I attended The American Heart Association Women’s Guild “Go Red” Luncheon. Everyone wore a touch of red, and the decorations were red, as this is one of the symbols for heart disease, the number one killer of women. Being a woman, I sat up and took notice. Cardiovascular disease, however, is not an unequal opportunity disease. More men have heart attacks earlier in life yet more women die from cardiovascular disease (estimated: 8.6 million women to 7.9 million men in 2004).

Don’t wait when you notice any of these signs:

Your choices about the following are very important to a vital life.

Look at yourself truthfully, and make the necessary steps to move toward tip-top health.

Extreme self care leads to a strong foundation, boundless energy, and joy in your life.

Investment in health care professionals is a good investment.

Make a list of 5 things you can do in 5 days.

Know your statistics: height, weight, cholesterol level, blood pressure, family history.

The information shared at the luncheon affected me profoundly, and here is the message. Please hear it so there will be no catastrophe.

With warm regards,
